BUY THIS SUPPORT LUPE... SHIT NEEDS TO BE HEARD. FUKIN WAYNE AND OTHERS MESSING UP HIP HOP. THIS NEEDS TO BE HEARD!!! THE STUFF ON THE RADIO IS ALL DRUGS, SEX, MONEY BULLSHIT! THIS MAN RAPS FOR A REASON. HIS WORDS ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING........ COPY AND PASTE ( SPREAD THE WORD) c:

absolutely brilliant... thank you for making our voices heard... thank you for freeing the world from ignorance and the global south from feeling like no one cares, no one is listening, and that its hopeless. I wanted to cry when i heard you say "I am with the people"... using your talents to speak the truth, call out the bullshit, and challenge the crap we're so used to hearing is something you will always be remembered for.. please don't ever change from this.

You know while this song speaks about things I concur with, there are other parts that are questionable. This is all lupes perspective and opinion on everything, you can ask another man about these same topics, and they'll formulate a different equation for you. Like I said personally I can feel most of this, but the peace talk is a pipe dream, that will never become reality. All you can do is come to peace with yourself and the world, and change what you can in your environment. World peace will NEVER happen. Too much Lust, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Pride, Sloth (carelessness), Greed in the world for that to ever occur, amongst other things of course. An amazing track though! And thats why I listen and follow you lupe, you speak your mind, and what you feel is the "truth". Cant help but respect that...I'll leave you guys with this
In this world there is originally no such thing as the truth or a lie There are only cold hard FACTS. Regardless, everything in this world lives by mistakenly recognizing only the FACTS that are convenient for them as the TRUTH This is because they possess no other way to live, but in actuality it is the FACTS that are inconvenient to their self affirmation that are the entirety of the TRUTH. Also, Everyone lives bound by their own knowledge and awareness. But knowledge and awareness are vague, and perhaps better called illusions. Everyone lives in their own subjective interpretation...
Let that marinate and stimulate your mind a little..

(Verse 3)
I think that all the silence is worse than all the violence
Fear is such a weak emotion thats why I despise it
We scared of almost everything Afraid to even tell the truth
So scared of what you think of me I'm scared of even tellin you
Sometimes I'm like the only person I feel safe to tell it to
I'm locked inside a cell in me I know that there's a jail in you
Consider this ya bailin' out, so take a breath, inhale if you
My screams is finally gettin' free, my thoughts is finally yellin' through

(Verse 2)
Now we can say it ain't our fault, if we never heard it
But if we know better than we probably deserve it
Jihad is not Holy War, where's that in the worship
Murdering is not Islam and you are not observant
And you are not a Muslim
Israel don't take my side cause look how far you've pushed them
Walk with me into the ghetto, this where all the kush went
Complain about the liquor store but what you drinkin liquor for
Complain about the gloom but, would you pick a broom up
Jus listenin to Pac, ain't gon make it stop
A rebel in your thoughts, ain't go make it halt
If you don't become an actor you'll never be a factor
Pills with million side effects, take em when the pains felt
Wash em down with diet soda, killin off your brain cells
Crooked banks around the world would gladly give a loan today
So if you ever miss a payment they can take your home away

It's so loud, inside my head, with words I should have said
As I drown, in my regrets, I can't take back the words I never said
I can't take back the words I never said
(Verse 1)
I really think the war on Terror is a bunch a bullshit
Just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets
How much money does it take to really make a full clip
9/11 buildin' 7 did they really pull it?
Unh, and a bunch of other cover ups
Your childs future was the first to go with budget cuts
If you think that hurts then, wait, here comes the uppercut
The school was garbage in the first place, thats on the up and up
Keep you at the bottom but, tease you with the upper crush
You get it then they move it so you never keepin up enough
If you turn on TV all you see's a bunch of what the fucks
Dude is dating so and so, blabbering bout such and such
And that ain't jersey shore, homie thats the news
And these the same people s'posed be tellin us the truth
Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist
Gaza Strip was gettin bombed Obama didn't say shit
Thats why I ain't vote for em, next one either
I'm a part of the problem, my problem is Im peaceful
And I believe in the people (Yeah!)
(Hook)
